Job summary

This is an exciting time to join the DDaT team at DCMS, as we strive to collaborate across the department to deliver user-centred services that drive smarter working, innovation and efficiency.

Our plans include critical investment in our corporate systems, ensuring they are fit for purpose and reducing the manual input required. Equally, there is ongoing development of the way the department delivers its policy outcomes via digital and data services, using AI where needed to maximise the value these can bring to users in the department or throughout the society we serve.

Aligned with the productive and agile state agenda, we embed DDaT expertise across departmental teams to enable early engagement with policy development, to support cost-effective delivery.

  • Assure overall service delivery by working with colleagues in other expert digital, data and technology practices to comply with the Government Service Standard, technology code of practices, secure by design and departmental information security standards
  • Work with commercial colleagues to hire third party delivery teams, when needed and working with the wider Digital and Data team on elements of project and programme management, regular reporting on delivery progress, advising on prioritisation and delivery risk
